Stranger 85/100 – May
Our next stranger is a sophomore in college and had just finished finals.
Meet May.
What advice would you give to your younger self? “Be more outgoing and not care so much about what other people think.”
What made you realize that? “I met a lot of nice people. I made more friends.”
What are your biggest challenges right now? “Well, I’m a college student so just like focusing on school and also having a social life.”
Where do you want to be in ten years? “I’m trying to be an actuary. I’m trying to get a job.”
What would be the ideal job? “One that pays well. {laughs}”
If you could put a billboard up in Charlotte, what would it say? “Live life to the fullest.”
Do you feel like you do that? “I think so. I try.”
How would your friends describe you? “Probably cheerful. They always say I smile a lot.”
I can vouch for that… “{laughs}”
What would you do if you had a million dollars? “Probably buy my parents a house or something. Maybe go on vacation. Definitely travel a lot… everywhere.”
Technical Notes: It was a bright day, but we found a nice shady spot in the city to take this portrait. I used a reflector to add some light to May’s face.
